Chapter 176: I'm About the Same as Your Father
From the first day of guarding against Zhao Chuanxin's troubles and the grass and trees were all soldiers, to Uncle Li's successive aftermaths, he gradually got used to it.
The beauty of being with people like Zhao Chuanxin is that they will forget their troubles, put aside their displeasure, their thoughts will be led, and every day is full of "surprises".
Looking at the snack shop, the chef who shaved his head and cooked seriously, and the waiter who shuttled between the tables with broken steps, Uncle Li also had a sense of loss of parting from his friends.
It may be precisely because of his abundant and full emotions that he was able to make the classic song "Farewell" by the ancient road outside the long pavilion.
He was surprised, are the two really friends?
How could he Li Shutong have such a friend?
"I'm leaving, can you do it yourself?"
Zhao Chuanxin stuffed bacon cheese and egg toast into his mouth, picked up the milk and poured a big mouthful.
Satisfied with a full burp: "How fresh is that, without you Li Butcher, I have to eat hairy pigs?" ”
In fact, only people who have no heart and lungs are suitable for crossing.
Otherwise, the environment changes abruptly, and family and friends are separated, and this alone can make people crazy.
Uncle Li, who was compared to a butcher, smiled bitterly: "Can't you talk well?"
Although I am not used to your out-of-the-box temperament, I can barely help you for a few more days. ”
Two days ago, he couldn't have said that anyway.
At the time, he wanted to disappear immediately.
Zhao Chuanxin tilted his head and looked at him with a smile: "Haha, are you reluctant to leave me?" ”
With Uncle Li's same nature, he immediately said embarrassedly: "Hehe, you don't have to forget it." ”
It is naturally convenient to have a translator, but Zhao Chuanxin is afraid of implicating Li Shutong.
But he didn't say it to him.
After breakfast, the two went back to the hotel, Uncle Li packed up his things, and handed the remaining money in the bag to Zhao Chuanxin: "You have a lot of money left." ”
"You can use the two jujubes." Suddenly remembered another thing, Zhao Chuanxin said: "The Qing court is preparing to take over the salt industry as an official salt business, after all, the banner family does not have much surplus grain.
Your family business is selling salt, right?
Hehe, your good days won't last long.
If I were you, I would save some flowers, so that I would not eat bran in the future. ”
The Qing court paid compensation every day, and like Zhao Chuanxin, he was a boy who scattered wealth.
The difference is that Zhao Chuan's salary has always been distributed to others, regardless of the cost; Cixi was only distributed to friendly countries, again regardless of the cost.
If you spend more, you naturally need new ways to make money.
Some people feel that Zhao Chuan's salary to the insurance team is too high, and his life is not worth 3,000 yuan. But if you die for 1,000,000 people, why can't he afford to pay it?
Who to underestimate?
The prince of the Qing court had 7 million pounds in his personal bank deposits, and 70 million silver dollars, which was enough to kill 20,000 insurance team members.
Zhao Chuanxin couldn't figure it out, what a 3,000 silver dollar pension was?
Is it reasonable that the lives of Chinese people must be more expensive than those of Manchu and cheaper than foreigners? Lu Xun later had a salary of 300 yuan a month, and 3,000 yuan was his ten-month teaching salary, and the value of the silver dollar at that time in the Republic of China was slightly higher than now, so did the life of a soldier have to be cheaper than that of a literati?
And Uncle Li, who listened to Zhao Chuanxin's words, was shocked.
Originally, he didn't find out that his family was bankrupt until he returned to China.
Now Zhao Chuanxin has given him a preventive shot.
After a moment of silence, Uncle Li nodded: "Thank you." ”
Seeing that he was a little depressed, Zhao Chuanxin still smiled heartlessly: "Then, the highest etiquette in our rivers and lakes - hug your fists and iron juice, and meet again!" ”
Li Shutong left with a heart and a few hundred pieces of ocean.
He has his life.
When Uncle Li walked together, Zhao Chuanxin looked up at the sky and spread his hands out.
"Ahh Free air, sweet rain and dew, cute Japanese chicks, Lao Tzu is here! ”
Looking up at the sky at forty-five degrees, this time it didn't attract an affair, but ......
"Ahh It's him, it's him who knocked my husband unconscious! ”
A white fat with an ugly long-haired dog in her arms and two police officers to identify the killer.
Zhao Chuanxin was stunned.
The most annoying thing is that someone makes him handsome for no more than three seconds.
So he grimaced and gritted his teeth.
And then
Turn around and run!
The advantage of not having a car is that although the speed of long-distance running is not very fast, the Japanese have no small short legs.
Kobe is a great place surrounded by mountains and the sea, with a mild climate all year round.
The southern part of Mt. Rokko is low and has many hot springs.
After running up the mountain, Zhao Chuanxin turned around and saw that the police were gone.
Finding a random way, he walked for a while with his hand on his back and the reins of the horse, when he suddenly heard the sound of rushing water.
Curious, I walked over and took a look.
I rub.
He rubbed his eyes and looked again, there were men and women in a hot spring, not a wisp, white and spicy eyes.
"It's really hurtful, and I have to go over and criticize them."
Zhao Chuanxin made up his mind and began to undress.
Poof!
The large splash of water caused others to be very dissatisfied.
"Do you have the morality to not wear a scarf before entering the pool?"
There are Japanese men who mumble in Japanese.
It's pure chicken-and-duck talk.
Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth and smiled: "Look at you, what kind of system do you become?"
Today I must criticize you twice.
Especially you, you girl, you look malnourished.
And you, what are you doing in the bath, your face painted like a ghost?
And you, well, you're good, keep in shape! ”
Fifty-three years ago, when the U.S. fleet knocked on Japan's door, Admiral Perry witnessed the scene of a mixed bath in Japan.
It is said that Perry was embarrassed at the time.
After the Meiji Restoration, the Tokugawa shogunate issued a ban on mixed bathing between men and women, and they felt somewhat ashamed.
It's easy to say anything behind closed doors, but now that the ugly thing has been seen by outsiders, how bad the impact is.
There may be a ban, but no penalty.
At most, like Zhao Chuanxin now, he is morally condemned!
So the ban continues.
When the tall Zhao Chuanxin slipped into the flowing hot spring, the Japanese girl here looked at him shyly and timidly.
There's no way, a group of chicks are mixed with eagles, and it's conceivable how piercing the eyes are.
"Look at the good things you guys have done, there's no shame on you.
A moral gentleman like me can't see your dirty face the most, ah tui......"
Zhao Chuanxin gushed endlessly.
It can be seen that he spit in the pool, and the Japanese man here is the first to quit.
A little dwarf stood up from the water and pointed at Zhao Chuanxin: "Baga, how can you spit in the pool?" ”
Zhao Chuanxin is happy, that's it, are you embarrassed to stand up?
He also got up in a hurry: "Baga, Baga, your whole family." Drafting the ...... of the Eighteen Generations of Ancestors"
Let you see what it means to be majestic!
The two scolded each other in the air.
Each other can only feel each other's momentum from the tone, and the content is all guessed.
Obviously, Zhao Chuanxin is a step ahead, and after a while, the Japanese left the pool in a huff, got dressed and left.
He didn't have the courage to do it.
Then, as if it had been discussed, the other men left one after another.
Only then did Zhao Chuanxin re-enter the water and look around with a smile.
"I see it with a critical eye, this is what a gentleman does."
You see, Zhao Chuanxin knows how to hypnotize himself with affirmative sentences.
I remember that Zhao Chuanxin once discussed the image of women in the late Qing Dynasty with his classmates.
Friends said that women in the late Qing Dynasty must be in line with the aesthetic views of men in the late Qing Dynasty.
Zhao Chuanxin scoffed.
Ugly is ugly!
But anyone who has a little aesthetic taste will not think that they will look good in that way.
It turned out that he was right.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, many celebrities in China were fond of Japanese women. Lu Xun, Sun Dacang, Pu Jie, Guo Kaizhen, and even Li Shutong, who had just separated from Zhao Chuanxin, were all like this.
Why?
It's not that Zhao Chuanxin extinguishes his own prestige and grows the ambition of others.
can look at the comparison of the appearance of the two sides.
Japanese women will trim their eyebrows, but they will not shave the hair on their foreheads to expose the door of their brains, and this will make it popular to have bangs.
At this time, Japanese women did not smear their teeth as they did in the early days, and few people painted their faces as if they were shaved white.
Zhao Chuanxin saw a girl's hairstyle and face, which were sweeter than Mitsuko Yamada in Jet Li's movie "Jingwu Hero".
This situation will continue until the arrival of the Republic of China, and all kinds of stunning colors will appear in the country.
Therefore, many times the appearance has a lot to do with the hairstyle, makeup and outfit.
Seeing that the little devils who were in the way had left, Zhao Chuanxin leaned against the shore in a comfortable position and said in English: "Who understands English?" ”
The sweet-looking girl said, "I will." ”
Soft-spoken, soft and weak.
"Oh, then you should be the translator, let's talk together!"
The girl translated the words to the women.
There are many unsolved mysteries in Japan.
Mixed bathing is just one of them.
What's more, in public, everyone behaves very shyly. Behind closed doors, all kinds of unrestrained.
Several of the girls and women present bowed their heads.
Very shy.
Zhao Chuanxin asked, "What's your name?" ”
"My name is Mariko Takano."
"Mamako, you're beautiful."
The Japanese, who have always copied Chinese culture, are still more introverted.
In the face of such unscrupulous praise from Zhao Chuanxin, Mariko Takano is really shy.
"Thank you!"
Zhao Chuanxin asked her again: "Where did you learn English?" ”
Mariko Takano whispered, "I studied at Rokko High School and learned from my teacher. ”
Hello high school students.
"Mamako, can you do me a favor?"
“OK!”
"Can you rub my back for me?"
“……”
……
After soaking in the hot springs, Zhao Chuanxin sent Takano Mazuko home with nothing to do.
"Mamako, what does your family do?"
"My father was a traditional craftsman and used to carve roots for nobles. Now everyone doesn't wear kimonos, but instead wears suits, and Netsuke can only be used for ornamental purposes. My father had to make pen holders and stationery boxes for his students to make ends meet.
My mother was a housewife. ”
Zhao Chuanxin remembered that there was a time in later generations when Japan's Nesuke was sought after, and many of them became Japan's national treasures.
Antiques are the utensils that carry culture and history, and it is time that gives them value.
But when Zhao Chuanxin was in the torrent of the times, he felt that there was no point in chasing antique cultural toys.
"That's a coincidence, I also know carving."
As he spoke, an extra antler appeared in his hand, and he carved it as he walked with the elven carving knife.
From time to time, I also looked up at Takano Mariko, and in a moment a figure began to take shape.
He was actually better at carving than painting.
The knife is up and down, and it is easy to master.
Since Takano Mariko's father is a root pay, she naturally doesn't see her father doing carving.
Ke Zhao Chuanxin......
This hand speed is really not human, and it can match this hand speed, how sharp does the carving knife need to be?
His father carved a few carvings, then blew a breath, blowing away the debris, and then continued to cut after observing left and right and thinking twice.
But Zhao Chuanxin didn't need to think about it, and the speed of the elf carving knife was faster than that of the five-axis round carving machine.
Finding that she was staring at her fingers, Zhao Chuanxin smiled, the elf carving knife rotated flexibly at the tip of the finger, and finally used the index finger as the central axis, the thumb flicked, and the elf carving knife turned quickly in the palm of the hand.
"I've been single for 30 years, and I'm not joking.
Would you like to try it? ”
Looking at the sharp elven carving knife, Mariko Takano hurriedly shook her head.
She clearly misunderstood.
There was also a scared expression on his face.
In fact
The reason why Zhao Chuanxin has been practicing carving hand speed is simple.
The head of the Elven Cutter is retractable, and he must be so fast that it is impossible to see the change in the blade.
Otherwise, it's always cumbersome to explain.
Practice makes perfect, and I have developed a good skill of "one hand".
After a while, the appearance of Takano Makoko appeared on the antlers, which was vivid.
The next work is fine, Zhao Chuanxin grabbed Takano Mariko: "Wait, let's sit here for a while." ”
He slashed his hair one by one.
Neither of them spoke.
This is a plateau, and there are shepherding cattle and sheep on the west side, grazing leisurely with their heads down.
There was a caretaker's dog barking.
The breeze is blowing and the sun is just right.
Dressed in a floral kimono, Mako Takano sat on the ground hugging her knees, Xu Feng blew her neat bangs up, and the hairband behind her fluttered in the wind.
At this time, it was no longer Zhao Chuanxin's carving that was staring, but Zhao Chuanxin himself.
Her eyes were clear and bright.
She thought: He is so tall and handsome, humorous, and capable.
Caught off guard, Zhao Chuanxin spoke: "Am I very handsome?"
I advise you not to think too badly of me! ”
First looked away from the frightened fawn, and then poofed, and the plateau real pear laughed.
And Zhao Chuanxin blew on the antlers.
The crumbs are flying, the lovely essence of the highland real pear is attached to the antlers, the delicate face, the slightly melancholy but clear big eyes, and the beautiful mouth shape.
handed it to her, Zhao Chuanxin said, "Compared to your father, what do you think of my craftsmanship?" ”
Pursing her lips and smiling, Takahara Mazuko took the antlers: "This kind of skill, even my father has to praise." ”
"Okay, give it back to me when you're done."
“……”
Don't play cards according to the routine.
Taking back the antlers, Zhao Chuanxin carved a round cartoon-style butt on the back. carved a few words and returned it to the plateau real pear.
"Well, I've got you."
Gao Yuan Zhenlizi couldn't help but clench his little fist and slammed it on Zhao Chuanxin's shoulder: "You're so bad." ”
"yes.
What a pear, your father is very skilled, and I am also very skilled, right? ”
"Hmm!"
"Skill is equal to skill, and I am equal to your father.
Well, from now on, you can call me Daddy. ”
"I'm going to die!"
Takahara Mariko couldn't hold back and burst into Japanese.
Zhao Chuanxin laughed.
The two of them got up and chased after me, so that the sheep grazing in the distance looked up curiously.
It wasn't until the reflection of the two people disappeared from the sheep's eyes that it lowered its head and continued to fill its stomach, which was not full at all.
